I'm "heavily concealed by darkness" in broad daylight in the desert. No idea how that works.

Haunting Ground (Demento in Japan), a lesser-known survival horror game that was released in 2005 for the PS2. It's similar to Clock Tower (defenseless protagonist gimmick but there's a twist this game).

I would rate this "Cuck" like all weebshit but this game is so endearingly absurd I can only rate it

Physical attacks do jack-shit. You have to use ice magic:

It's time to... Go back to town, before we get owned by new enemies. Here, we can visit the Priestess:

Or our little mule Sis:

Verdict: fucking fun so far. Falcom knows how to do it right.

I've just got raped by some MEGA SLIME (I've expected a mini-boss, but decided to press on instead of warping back to the city to save), so it's not the easy time yet... :cry:

Codex Year of the Donut Codex+ Now Streaming!
The old computer was buggy and at ten years old I never managed to finish Rayman. I couldn't pass boss Space Mama.
Now, over twenty years later, I am back.


First back to this level out of hell. Rayman is sometimes unforgiving but this is straight up sadism.


Calm before the storm.


Here we go. Here she comes.


The fearful Space Mama is still guarding the end of the Picture City, waiting for me to be back.


At. Last.
Took me two continues, but my ten years old self has been avenged today.

Why is Theseus wearing machinegun ammo belts?
there's a difficulty modifier that buffs bosses: some change the combat arena, some grant them new moves/armor. Theseus and Asterius gain armor, both get new moves, Theseus has a new Phase 1 where he uses a gattling gun while riding around in the cart.

Been playing Greedfall off and on. Animations are pretty bad but the game looks very nice at times, especially the armour sets. It also has a refreshing setting that hasn't been done to death yet.

Why on earth is there normal mapping on the wallpaper ?
Walls with embossed patterns like that used to be a thing. I think the modern wallpaper with similar patterns is a cheaper way of replicating the look.

I approached it as an annoying thing I wanted to tick off the to-do list. I don't even enjoy the ranged weapons tbh. I just knew that the auto-fire would trivialize the combat encounters.

The most fun I had by far is with the fists.

Eschalon Book 2. Spent about 8 hours just conjuring up food and selling it to vendors to build a fortune out of berries, seeds and autism. Good stuff.

Playing Ico for the second time. Last time was eight years ago, so I've fortunately forgotten all the puzzles, though most are straightforward anyway.
